- Title
Spatial population structure of rare orchid species in rich fens in the central part of Murmansk oblast.

- Abstract
The spatial structure of 10 populations of rare orchid species ( Dactylorhiza incarnata, D. traunsteineri, Listera ovata) has been studied in rich fens sporadically occurring in Murmansk oblast. Two levels of plant aggregation within populations have been distinguished: (1) clusters of individuals and (2) isolated population subsets consisting of clusters. General spatial demographic features of orchid populations in the fens are small area (77 m) and low ecological density (0.009 ind./m). Characteristics of the population subsets (their number, area, composition, and distance to the neighboring subset) are species-specific and reflect the degree of species rarity in plant communities.
